California Climate.

San Francisco Chronicle, Jan. 20:
The sun shone warmly on Golden Gate
Park yesterday. There was just enough
breeze to give the air an invigorating
and bracing flavor. BY noon the cars
leading to the resort became uncom-
fortably crowded and gallant Young
men were glad enough to secure
hand and foot hold, with the accom-
panying privilege of hanging off in
space. The smooth roadway of Golden
Gate avenue soon became dotted with
numberless speeding vehicles of hetero-
geneOus species, from four-in-hand
rockaway to a One-hOrse cart. 1t
would be no eNaggeration to say that
there were from $500 to 3 200 carriages
in the park yesterday and from 10000
to u. 900 people. To Eastern visitors
who visited the park yesterday the
spectacle presented must havs beenla
novel one. The late rains have imbued
the young verdue with a new and am
bilious encouragement. Already the
slopes and hillsides are covered with
long grasses and the foliage has assum-
ed its greenest hue. Lining the wind
ing walks and avenues fuchsias and
violet are blooming with their usual
luxuriance. seeming to laugh the
season ; change to ScOrn. The people,
too. who visited the park were appar-
emily equally unconscious of the season.
Ladies in light dresses carried parasols
to protect them from the suns rays.
and men threw open their coats. Every
body seemed to enjoy himself. Staid
old people promenaded up and down
Conservatory Valley drinking in the
GLORIOUS climate of California"
Lovers strolled through the winding
paths as though ii were spring. Child
rem tumbled and screamed with delight
about the grassy slopes Of Chicken Hill
and all when tired sought the benches
in the valley and listened to the inspit-
ing strains of the Second Regiment
band. which discomsed throughout the
afternoon.

dangers OF CircamstantiA, evidence.

Near Muneic, Ind. about ten years
ago. barn was burned one night and
q great deal Of property destroyed
A harmless old shoemaker was charged
with the arson. thrown IN Jail. and
few weeks afterward brought to trial.
A detective who had been employed To
ferret out the guilty person. and who
made the affidavit that the shoemaker
burned the barn. took the jury out to
the scene of the fire and showed that
the boots the shoemaker had on fitted
tracks made about the place the night
OF the fire and traced the tracks to the
old mans home in the city. He also
produced piece of cloth from the
seat of the shoemaker pantaloOns,
which he found under a splinter on
rail on the top of the fence near where
the barn stood and where the tracks
showed that the prisoner had left the
premises. The ease was made com
plete on this testimony When the
prisoner was about to be found guilty
it was discovered that the detective,
short time after the shoemaker was
thrown in Jail, had feigned drunken
ness, been arrested. and thrown into
Jail and into the same cell with the
prisoner. where he remained over night.
The detective was released the next
day, and a day or two afterwards he
repeated the act. IL was discovered,
further that he had torn the piece of
cloth from the pantaloons of the prison
or while the latter was asleep, and
traded boots with him, and when put
in Jail the second time had re-exchanged
boots. During the interim between
the first and second time the detective
was in Jail he had gone to the farm
where the fire had occurred, wearing
the boots of the prisoner. made the
tracks with them, and placed the piece
of cloth under the splinter on the rail.
The old man was acquitted without
form when these discoveries were made
known. but it was hair breadth
